The next time you decide to stab me in the back... have the guts to do it to my face.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Worked out to Arrow and saw they had the Rag Man. The Rag Man went through a bunch of versions in comics, starting as non-superpowered. But one particular supernatural version always sticks with me, one that in my opinion the most horrifying source of super-powers for a non-villain ever. Show's version seems to come from a collision between something along the shroud of Turin and a nuclear blast. But since the exact nature of the "cloth" has not yet been revealed, other than being supernatural in some way, it is still possible that Show will go to that dark and scary place. After all, Show *likes* dark and scary places. I won't say more so as not to spoil in case in happens. But I'm really hoping they go with the ultra-scary-ass Rag Man, even though I don't trust them to handle him properly. Since I'm probably one of the least Geeky people on this board when it comes to comics (perhaps excluding some of those just not into comics books) I'm betting a bunch of people know exactly what I'm talking about.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Just finished the premiere of Legends, and that was actually kind of good. Sara was much better. So are we done with not!Rory, or will he be back? Also, is all of this Barry's fault?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Flash

Wally, Wally, Wally, do not emulate Barry's decision making techniques. Good to see Harry again. Interesting that timelines are tied to a specific Earth, which means Supergirl was unaffected.

Loved Jesse Quick.

Supergirl

Is Snapper Carr that old in the comics now? He was in his early 20's when I was reading him in JLA allthose decades ago. I was waiting for him to say to Kara, "You've got spunk. I hate spunk!"

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I could have done without Kara getting an asshole curmudgeon boss. Unless she punches him a little next time he's an asshole.

I don't know why it took me so long to realize that Wally's going to go to Alchemy.

And it's not that I'm not enjoying Arrow, but literally every decision everyone made in that episode was terrible.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

And really, are we going to spend the whole season hearing about how great the Bratva is and how their leadership techniques are the best?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

And it's not that I'm not enjoying Arrow, but literally every decision everyone made in that episode was terrible.

But Ragman is fairly pretty, so there's that.

He is. And I love Curtis. I just had to marvel again last night that he's a gay, married, black, scientist Olympian. How many other gay black characters have there even been on network TV?

Okay, watching last night's Legends, and OMG they're going to let Victor Garber sing, aren't they!

Our wings are not tired.

and OMG they're going to let Victor Garber sing, aren't they!

I don't even watch Legends but I would tune in for that.
